Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2502646A2] The device has a detection unit to capture device-impairing effects, and a diagnostic-treatment unit to record physiological parameters and/or deliver a treatment. A control unit (40) actuates a test unit to test the diagnostic-treatment unit, and triggers a preliminary test of a portion of the diagnostic-treatment unit by the test unit in response to an output signal from the detection unit indicating the device-impairing effects. The test unit captures values of system integrity parameters that characterize an operating capability of the device, during the preliminary test. The detection unit is a MRI detection unit (50) such as MRI sensor, and captures typical magnetic fields or alternating electromagnetic fields or mechanical vibrations.
